| Lyrics : | English Translation : |
| An chéad suáilce fuair an Mhaighdean Bheannaithe | The first joy that the blessed Virgin received |
| Ba í sin an tsuáilce mhór | Was a great joy |
| Suáilce a fuair sí óna haonmhac uasal | A joy received from her one noble son |
| Go bhfuair sí a haon mhac beo | Who she brought forth into the world |
| An dara suáilce fuair an Mhaighdean Bheannaithe | The second joy that the blessed Virgin received |
| Ba í sin an tsuáilce mhór | Was a great joy |
| Suáilce a fuair sí óna haonmhac uasal | A joy received from her one noble son |
| Go deachaidh sé a léamh na leabhar | That he went to study the holy books |
| An triú suáilce fuair an Mhaighdean Bheannaithe | The third joy that the blessed Virgin received |
| Ba í sin an tsuáilce mhór | Was a great joy |
| Suáilce a fuair sí óna haonmhac uasal | A joy received from her one noble son |
| Gur thug uirthi bláth na n-ord | That she was the flower of the holy orders |
| An ceathrú suáilce fuair an Mhaighdean Bheannaithe | The fourth joy that the blessed Virgin received |
| Ba í sin an tsuáilce mhór | Was a great joy |
| Suáilce a fuair sí óna haonmhac uasal | A joy received from her one noble son |
| Gurbh é fhéin an Slánaitheoir | That he was the savior |
| An cúigiú suáilce fuair an Mhaighdean Bheannaithe | The fifth joy that the blessed Virgin received |
| Ba í sin an tsuáilce mhór | Was a great joy |
| Suáilce a fuair sí óna haonmhac uasal | A joy received from her one noble son |
| Go ndearna sé na mairbh beo | That he restored the dead to life |
| An séu suáilce fuair an Mhaighdean Bheannaithe | The sixth joy that the blessed Virgin received |
| Ba í sin an tsuáilce mhór | Was a great joy |
| Suáilce a fuair sí óna haonmhac uasal | A joy received from her one noble son |
| Gur thug sé fion le hól | That he gave his blood to drink as wine |
| An seachtú suáilce fuair an Mhaighdean Bheannaithe | The seventh joy that the blessed Virgin received |
| Ba í sin an tsuáilce mhór | Was a great joy |
| Suáilce a fuair sí óna haonmhac uasal | A joy received from her one noble son |
| Go dtabharfadh sé í suas ar neamh | That he carried her to heaven |
